TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 2, 2023 / GHP Noetic Science-Psychedelic Pharma Inc. (" GHP ") (TSXV:PSYF.P) is pleased to announce that it has received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the " TSXV ") for its proposed qualifying transaction (as such term is defined in TSXV Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies) (the " Transaction ") with Xcyte Digital Corp. (" Xcyte ").
Further to its comprehensive news releases dated May 24, 2023, June 19, 2023 and July 28, 2023, GHP will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Xcyte from Onstream Media Corporation (" Onstream ") and James Hayes-Jones in exchange for the issuance of securities of GHP. On closing of the Transaction, it is expected that the resulting issuer will be listed as a Tier 2 Technology Issuer on the TSXV, and its business will be the business currently carried on by Xcyte, which is ultimately the business carried on by Onstream. For additional information regarding the Transaction, please see GHP's filing statement dated October 31, 2023 (the " Filing Statement ") with respect to the Transaction which was filed today and is available under GHP's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
The completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions including, but not limited to, completion of the Concurrent Financing (as defined below), and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Assuming all conditions for closing are satisfied, closing of the Transaction is expected to occur on or about November 15, 2023, or such other date as GHP and Xcyte may determine.
Concurrent Financing
Further to GHP's news release dated July 28, 2023, the previously announced majority arm's length non-brokered private placement (the " Concurrent Financing ") is now expected to be completed for aggregate proceeds of approximately $4,300,000 (or such other amount as may be agreed upon by GHP and Xcyte, which amount will not be less than $4,300,000). The Concurrent Financing will consist of only the issuance of (a) units (the " SV Units ") comprised of one subordinate voting share (a " SV Share ") and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a " Warrant ") exercisable into one SV Share at a price of $0.50 per share for a period of 36 months and (b) units (the " MV Units ") comprised of one multiple voting share (a " MV Share ") and 5,000 Warrants. The SV Units will be issued at a price of $0.25 per SV Unit and the MV Units will be issued at a price of US$1,900 per MV Unit. As the MV Units are priced in United States dollars, it is anticipated that the actual gross proceeds of the Concurrent Financing may exceed CAD$4,300,000. Supplemental disclosure with respect to actual amounts of the Concurrent Financing will be provided in a news release in connection with the closing of the Transaction.
